Towards Efficient Intrusion Detection Using Hybrid Data Mining Techniques, Fadi Salo Jun 2019

Towards Efficient Intrusion Detection Using Hybrid Data Mining Techniques, Fadi Salo

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

The enormous development in the connectivity among different type of networks poses significant concerns in terms of privacy and security. As such, the exponential expansion in the deployment of cloud technology has produced a massive amount of data from a variety of applications, resources and platforms. In turn, the rapid rate and volume of data creation in high-dimension has begun to pose significant challenges for data management and security. Handling redundant and irrelevant features in high-dimensional space has caused a long-term challenge for network anomaly detection. Eliminating such features with spectral information not only speeds up the classification process, but …


Multi-Column Neural Networks And Sparse Coding Novel Techniques In Machine Learning, Ammar O. Hoori Jan 2019

Multi-Column Neural Networks And Sparse Coding Novel Techniques In Machine Learning, Ammar O. Hoori

Theses and Dissertations

Accurate and fast machine learning (ML) algorithms are highly vital in artificial intelligence (AI) applications. In complex dataset problems, traditional ML methods such as radial basis function neural network (RBFN), sparse coding (SC) using dictionary learning, and particle swarm optimization (PSO) provide trivial results, large structure, slow training, and/or slow testing. This dissertation introduces four novel ML techniques: the multi-column RBFN network (MCRN), the projected dictionary learning algorithm (PDL) and the multi-column adaptive and non-adaptive particle swarm optimization techniques (MC-APSO and MC-PSO). These novel techniques provide efficient alternatives for traditional ML techniques. Compared to traditional ML techniques, the novel ML …
